Sour Cherry Oven Pancake

I love these oven pancakes. They're very eggy and so simple to make that cleanup's really easy. I've never had a clafouti but I always imagine it's something like this, like a set custard. It puffs up quite a bit in the oven.

First you preheat the oven to 425, then put 2 tablespoons of butter in a pie plate and put that in the oven. Once the butter's melted, I covered the bottom of the plate with some bottled sour cherries (not cherry pie filling; just cherries in juice). Put that back in the oven, then whisked together 3 eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup flour, a teaspoon sugar, a pinch of salt and a grating of nutmeg. Pour that into the heated pie plate, over the cherries, and bake for about 16 minutes, until set and the puffed-up edges are nice and brown. Slice and serve. We ate it with maple syrup.

You could probably add more sugar or flavorings like vanilla. The original recipe used sliced almonds instead of cherries, or you could add different cooked fruit, like apples. Maybe even make a savory one, with smoked salmon, ham or bacon, or some cheese?
